DTC

Description

Fault Trigger Conditions

B11D9:16 Vehicle Battery: Circuit Below

Threshold

This DTC sets in continuous memory if the SCCM detects battery voltage below 8 volts from the battery voltage supply circuit.

Possible Causes

Wiring, terminals or connectors Charging system concern High circuit resistance SCCM

PINPOINT TEST E : B11D9:16

NOTICE: Use the correct probe adapter(s) when making measurements. Failure to use the correct probe adapter(s) may damage the connector.

NOTE: Failure to disconnect the battery when instructed may result in false resistance readings.

E1 RECHECK THE SCCM (STEERING COLUMN CONTROL MODULE) DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODES (DTCS)

Ignition ON. Using the diagnostic scan tool, clear the SCCM Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs). Using the diagnostic scan tool, carry out the SCCM self-test.

Is DTC B11D9:16 still present?

Yes

GO to E2

No

The system is operating normally at this time. The DTC may have been set due to a previous low battery voltage condition.

E2 CHECK FOR CHARGING SYSTEM DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODES (DTCS) IN THE PCM (POWERTRAIN CONTROL MODULE)

Using the diagnostic scan tool, carry out the PCM KOEO self-test. Using the diagnostic scan tool, retrieve the Continuous Memory Diagnostic Trouble Codes (CMDTCs) from the PCM.

Are any charging system Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) present in the PCM?

E3 CHECK THE BATTERY CONDITION AND STATE OF CHARGE

Ignition OFF. Carry out the battery condition test. REFER to: Battery (414-01 Battery, Mounting and Cables, Diagnosis and Testing).

Is the battery OK and fully charged?

E4 CHECK THE SCCM (STEERING COLUMN CONTROL MODULE) VOLTAGE SUPPLY USING THE SYSTEM BATTERY VOLTAGE (VBAT_SCCM) PID (PARAMETER IDENTIFICATION)

Ignition ON. Measure and record:

Click to display connectors

Positive Lead

Measurement / Action

Negative Lead

Using a diagnostic scan tool, view the SCCM Parameter Identifications (PIDs). Using a diagnostic scan tool, monitor the SCCM PID VBAT_SCCM.

Is the voltage within 0.2 volt of the recorded battery voltage?

Yes

GO to E7

No

GO to E5

E5 CHECK THE SCCM (STEERING COLUMN CONTROL MODULE) VOLTAGE SUPPLY FOR HIGH RESISTANCE

Ignition OFF. Disconnect SCCM C226A. Ignition ON. Measure:
